Guest guest Posted July 3, 2004 Report Share Posted July 3, 2004 Well, you may be proving this theory... lol... the next time you are around or get it... stop the cashews and see if it is any less than what you usually get.

When I get it, it is literally from the top of my head to the soles of my feet, and everywhere (and I do mean EVERYWHERE) in between. I have to be wrapped to keep from scratching in my sleep, daily shots, the whole nine yards. I'd really hate to give up cashews, though. MAN are they good!!!

I would rather rub vaseline over my exposed parts, no comment here Guido, than to wash with Dawn dishwashing detergent or any detergent for that matter. -- Peace, love and light, Don Quai " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.
